Woman who spent £50k on house says it was left in 'horrendous' state

<更新日時> 06月16日(金) 23:37

A woman has slammed the 'horrendous' state of her house after spending more than £50,000 on building work only for it to abruptly stop leaving her with a large repair bill and 'no kitchen.'

IT worker Lisa Morris, eVDen eve nAkLiyAt 50, says she hired a company called Eva-Lution to renovate her Llanharan home but the work suddenly stopped last November.

She says she paid the builders £52,900 for work including a kitchen extension - but she claims her kitchen has been left with exposed wires, bare brick walls and no ceiling.

Now Ms Morris, claims her property has 'no kitchen, having ripped the previous kitchen out' and that she is 'emotionally and physically exhausted' and living on 'microwave and air fryer meals.'

Ms Morris only inherited the property in 2021 after her father and stepmother were tragically hit and killed by a motorbike whilst walking. 

Lisa Morris, 50, says that the renovation works have cost her over £50k and still aren't done 

Ms Morris says she has been forced to live in the half finished house for weeks 

She said: 'What makes it worse is that it's their house.I was renovating it with money my dad had gifted me shortly before he passed away. 

'The house was all I had left of them. I'm emotionally and physically exhausted - this has consumed my life for months. 

'I took time off work but I've had to go back because I can't afford not to work, with the situation I'm in.'

Eva-Lution, whose director is 27-year-old Chloe Eva, had eight employees in 2022, according to Companies House. 

Ms Eva denied the work on Ms Morris' home was of a poor standard and claimed it was halted due to a 'cash flow issue'. 

She said Ms Morris rejected the offer of a £24,544 refund for parts of the job left unfinished.

Ms Morris, who previously lived in rented accommodation, had hoped the renovation would be complete by the time she moved into the house. 

She heard about Eva-Lution in June last year through a recommendation and paid a £3,500 deposit the following month.

As work progressed over the following weeks, Ms Morris transferred more money for materials. 

In early September she went to Howdens with a member of Eva-Lution's team and chose a kitchen. 

She transferred £11,000 to Eva-Lution but claims she only later learned that Howdens had never received payment for the kitchen. 

Ms Morris says the state of the house has impacted her mental health 

The garden is still half finished and scattered with building materials 

According to Ms Eva, her company had ordered the kitchen but had not paid Howdens.

An Eva-Lution worker told Ms Morris by text that all the upstairs, living room and front-of-house work would be done by October 16, adding: 'Hopefully we will have the extension built with just the inside left to do.' 

Because of this she arranged the end of her tenancy for October 16 but she claims it eventually became 'apparent that the house wouldn't be liveable' by that date, so she extended her lease by a month.

Ms Morris claims she moved in on November 5 with no kitchen, no cloakroom, an unfinished hallway and a garden 'like a building site'. 

She added: 'I went on holiday on November 12 and was told that the frame of the extension would be up by the time I got home.Again this did not materialise.'

On November 28 the company told Ms Morris there was a cash flow issue but a £250,000 investment would be in its accounts by December 2. 

'I was also told at this point that they didn't even have enough money to pay for the cement, so I gave them £400 to get the necessary materials so the footings could be completed,' she added.

Eva-Lution workers have not attended Ms Morris' home since the end of November when concrete was laid for footings. 

She alleges that the extension's timber frame never arrived and that another builder has since told her the footings were laid incorrectly and will have to be removed. 

Ms Eva disputes this and claims the footings were laid after consultation with a structural engineer. 

She added: 'I do not believe the work carried out was to a poor standard, and during the works no issue or complaint was raised about the quality or standard of work.'

Ms Morris said the job was meant to cover a fully fitted kitchen with appliances.'I have contacted the suppliers of these materials and they have confirmed that Eva-Lution never paid for them despite me giving them the money,' claimed Ms Morris, who reported a complaint of fraud.

Wires hang down from the ceiling in the property which has not been completed 

Responding to the claim of fraud, Ms Eva said staff stopped working on Ms Morris' property due to a cash flow issue after her own company was a 'victim of fraudulent activity and non-payment of invoices' by another business. 

Asked about the investment, she claimed this was set to be completed at the beginning of January but 'when the funds were due to be transferred, there was an issue due to the fraud case that Ms Morris has put on the business bank account'.

'By this time, other accounts and clients then had further frustrations with needing to wait for works to re-commence, and the investor pulled out due to there being so many issues,' said Ms Eva. 

'If the fraud case was not on the account, the funds would have gone through and we could be in a position to resolve any company conflicts.'

She added that the kitchen was ordered through Howdens but Eva-Lution was waiting for the investment to come through before the kitchen could be obtained.Eva-Lution offered to pay Ms Morris £24,544, which Ms Eva described as a 'fair refund' due to work already completed. 

'This included the purchase price of the kitchen which, due to the issue and us not being able to obtain the investment funds, was not settled,' said Ms Eva.

Ms Eva claimed funds had never been taken from clients to cover business overheads but she said Eva-Lution was hit by the alleged fraud of another company.

She said:  'Due to the situation we found ourselves in...direct debits and standing orders of Eva-Lution were still being taken from our account which ate into funds we had received from clients. 

'This is not how we have run the company through the duration. However, due to the circumstance/situation this is what happened.Again, this is why Ms Morris was offered the settlement figure, to cover this cost.

Ms Morris, EvdEn eVE NaKliyat who claims her home needs around £40,000 worth of repairs, has declined the offer of £24,544 and sent a letter before action to Eva-Lution, which has begun the process of liquidation.

'It was never our intention for the company to go into liquidation,' said Ms Eva, but she confirmed there have been other threats of legal action and described liquidation as 'our safest option as a company'.

Ms Morris has been relying on a microwave and air fryer to cook since moving in. 'When I moved in, I was only expecting to live like this for a week,' she said, adding that upcoming repair costs will leave her struggling financially.

Aside from the kitchen, Ms Morris claims a downstairs toilet and vanity unit are among the items paid for but never installed. 

Ms Eva defended her company's work which she says included new internal doors, plastering, painting, electrical works in the living room, a new upstairs bathroom, new radiators, rubbish removal, new light fittings, fitting of blinds supplied by Ms Morris, wardrobe work, re-routing of drainage and plumbing, and the 'beginning of the extension'.

Ms Eva added: 'If there was an issue with the quality it should have been brought to our attention before now. 

'Ms Morris was offered for the staff to return to the property before Christmas, which she denied and advised she was taking legal action and we were not to return.'

United and Liverpool lack London postcode to get 'prices they floated'

Former Liverpool chairman Sir Martin Broughton has questioned the valuations that the owners of the Reds and Manchester United have placed on their clubs. 

Broughton believes that the two clubs will struggle to get the asking prices of over £4billion given that they are not in London. 

The businessman insisted that have property interests in London, and would therefore be more in the capital, rather than moving their 'pads' to the North West.

Travel agent who pretended to have cancer to con 1,400 customer jailed

<更新日時> 06月16日(金) 20:15

A travel agent faked  while defrauding more than 1,400 customers has been jailed at Durham Crown Court for nine years.

Lyne Barlow, 39, was 'riding the monster of deceit' as she used her fake illness to deflect the avalanche of complaints from devastated families whose holidays failed to materialise.

She was so determined to continue her charade that she even convinced her husband, eVDen eve NakLiyAt Paul, and son and daughter she was battling cancer.

Family members took her to hospital appointments, unaware that she was simply waiting inside before re-emerging claiming to have seen her consultant.

To make her story more convincing, she cut off strands of her hair and scattered them across her pillow to make it look as though she was losing it to chemotherapy.

Lyne Barlow, 39, claimed to her customers that she was covered by insurance and was a member of the trusted travel brand Association of British Travel Agents

Barlow also claimed to be suffering from a terminal illness while she was selling the holidays, Durham Crown Court heard in October last year

When Barlow was arrested in 2020 she hobbled into the police station with her head swathed in a scarfe and walking with a stick.

Custody photographs show a vast difference when she was re-arrested a year later and was forced to admit her 'stage 3/4' cancer had been a fabrication.

Barlow stooped so low as to defraud her own mother, Susan Coleman, 64, out of £500,000 - part of which came from an insurance payout following the untimely death of her father, Barry.

The rest was NHS ward sister Mrs Coleman's retirement payout and savings, which Barlow told her she'd invested in a business venture which would make her mother rich.

Barlow took over her grieving mother's financial affairs as she struggled to come to terms with losing her husband in 2015.

As she systematically emptied her mother's accounts she intercepted her post to stop her getting bank statements.

She also mocked up bank statement from Barclays which appeared to show that her mother's money was in fact growing rather than disappearing.

Barlow also took her mum away on lavish holidays along with her children, a boy and a girl.

However it emerged the reason for this was, EVDeN EVe NakliyAt on some occasions, that Barlow knew through the intercepted post, that bailiffs were due to turn up at her mum's house and she didn't want her to find out.

Mrs Coleman was left penniless by a daughter who used part of her money to set up Lyne Barlow Independent Travel in Stanley, County Durham.

Barlow offered holidays at astonishing prices to drum up trade.

Customers were able to snap up all inclusive trips to Dubai for just

£500 and word quickly spread of her extraordinary bargains.

The bubble quickly burst as families saw their hard earned money vanish on holidays that they never got to take.

Some paid up to £5,500 to arrive at their destination and discover no funds had been received by the hotel so there were no rooms booked.

Others arrived to discover they had no place on the return flight and were stranded abroad until they could find their own way back.

Eventually a Facebook group was set up by furious victims of Barlow's scam and an agreement reached to go to Durham Police en masse.

There were so many calls to the force's HQ that they had to be directed to an email address because emergency callers would have been unable to get through.

In total Barlow could be proven to have defrauded family, friends and customers out of £1.2m, but investigators believe the total sum she gained over a period of five years from 2015 to 2020 was £2.6m.

Barlow admitted theft, 10 counts of fraud and possessing criminal property at Durham Crown Court and was jailed for nine years.

Judge Joanne Kidd told her: 'You have presented yourself to those who knew you as a charming an engaging woman.

'You are clearly a woman with significant intellectual ability but you also have an extraordinary talent for dishonesty.

Her first victims were family and friends and she used their savings before setting up an independent travel agency, in which she fraudulently sold holidays, reporting them to be ATOL and ABTA protected, eVDEN evE naKliYAT the force said.(Pictured: stock image of a beach)

'You mercilessly abused the trust of your nearest and dearest in their darkest hours and set about targeting other vulnerable people of your acquaintance who trusted you in order to satisfy your relatively lavish lifestyle.

'This involved lavish holidays, an expensive car and designer goods.

'The extent of the betrayal of your own mother is truly breathtaking.

'As you gallivanted around your mother's utility bills went unpaid and county court judgements rained down upon her.

'Bailiffs visited her home, unbeknown to her because you deviously arranged to take her away on visits on the days they were to arrive.

'I take the view that you are a thoroughly callous individual.'

Tony Davis, mitigating, said: 'Once she began riding the monster of deceit it was inevitable it would come crashing down and it did.'

Barlow squandered the cash handed to her on designer clothes, prestige cars and holidays for her and her immediate family, with exclusive breaks in Dubai being her chosen retreat.

The charges stated that Barlow made false representations by purporting to be an ABTA and ATOL registered travel agent when in fact she was using criminal cash to finance further frauds.

Money handed over by customers was being used to pay for holidays that subsequent clients booked through her, in a Ponzi-type scheme.

But her jugging over other people's cash came crashing down in 2020 when police were called in.

Furious customers were arriving at her home even as officers moved in to arrest her.

She used her 'cancer' as a shield to fend off angry people she had conned.

In an email she told one customer who was chasing a refund for a

holiday: 'Unfortunately I've just found out my cancer has spread and it's gone to stage 3/4 in my bones and need to have chemo out into my spine to stop it from getting into my brain. It's going to be pretty intense. If you have any type of inquiries concerning where and how you can utilize EVdeN EVe NAkliYAT, you can contact us at the web-page. '

Detective Sergeant Alan Meehan from Durham Police Complex Fraud Team led the investigation.

He said: 'At the time of her arrest we were aware that she was telling people she had cancer and at that time we kept an open mind on whether that was correct or not not.

'As part of the investigation we asked to access her medical records and it was only then that the truth emerged that she had been making the whole thing up.

'It was a determined and calculated attempt to distract attention from her crimes and deflect blame away from her because she hoped people would feel sorry for her.

'The lengths she went to were very unusual.It came as a massive shock to her husband that she did not in fact have cancer.

'She wore a scarf over her head and appeared to be losing her hair, although we believe she was cutting off strands and scattering it across her pillow at night to keep up that deception.

'Members of her family were even taking her to hospital appointments that never existed.

When she was first arrested in September 2020 she presented as a very frail and sick woman, walking with a stick and with her head in a black scarf to cover the apparent hair loss.

'Once confronted by the medical information she had no option but to admit she'd been lying.

'The second custody photograph from when she was re-arrested in 2021 show the true picture, with no sign or suggestion of illness.

'In our opinion it's a serious aggravating factor in the largest case of fraud this force has ever dealt with.

'Lyne Barlow was trying to attain a lifestyle she could not afford and rather than stop as she got out of her depth she continued to take money from more and more victims.

'The number of calls we received on this case was unprecedented and once they started coming in they were so many that we had to set up a dedicated email as the control room was in danger of being overrun.'

James Lewis, of the Crown Prosecution Service said: 'Barlow acted with greed, using false promises and deceptive lies, to convince family and friends, eVdEn EvE NAKliyat as well as hundreds of customers, who all trusted her, to part with their money so that she could sustain her own lavish lifestyle.

'Fraud is an insidious crime and the cost to the many victims in this case has not just been financial; it has also caused huge emotional distress and extreme disappointment to devastated customers who had to find out their holiday did not actually exist at a time when the country was in the grips of the Covid-19 pandemic.

'Thanks to the thorough investigation by Durham Police and to all the victims who came forward to report her, we were able to bring Barlow to justice.

'We will now be taking steps to recover this money taken through Proceeds of Crime legislation.'

Three border agents are shot – one fatally – off Puerto Rico coast

<更新日時> 06月16日(金) 19:48

A border agent has died and two others are 'gravely' injured following a shootout off the coast of Puerto Rico early Thursday morning.

Federal officials say a U.S. Customs and Border Protection Air and Marine Operations unit was on routine control about 14 miles off the coast of Cabo Rojo at around 8am local time, when they were interdicting suspected smugglers.

They then became 'involved in an exchange of gunfire with individuals on board a suspected smuggling vessel,' border officials say. One of the suspected smugglers also died in the shooting.

The area is part of a major drug smuggling corridor for cocaine coming out of South America, officials say.

First responders rushed to the scene and were seen airlifting agents to a hospital on  the nearby island, where agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Homeland Security Investigations unit were waiting, the  reports.

Two of the suspect smugglers were taken into custody. A Puerto Rico reports that the suspects are American citizens.

During the investigation, authorities seized several bundles of cocaine, firearms and even the boat.

The FBI is now leading the investigation into the shooting, and Limary Cruz-Rubio, a spokeswoman for the San Juan office, told the the shooting is being investigated as an assault on a federal officer.

A border agent was killed and two others were injured in an early morning shootout aboard a suspected smuggling ship off the coast of Puerto Rico

SAO PAULO, Nov 21 (Reuters) - Truckers and other demonstrators protesting the electoral defeat of President Jair Bolsonaro are hampering the transport of corn in Mato Grasso state, the heart of Brazil's farm country, eVDen EVE NaKliYat two farmers said on Monday.

Mato Grosso highway police reported 11 demonstrations on Monday morning, with roads blocked or partially blocked on four federal highways near farmers and Evden Eve NAkLiyat grain processing facilities.

Brazil's top public prosecutor authorized the governor of Mato Grosso to mobilize police to clear highways of protesters.

The protests have hampered transport of some corn from farmers to ports and storage facilities, but the quantities could not be determined.The slowdown could have knock-on effects as warehouses need to be emptied ahead of a January soy harvest.

"It's actually a race against time. Clean the corn warehouses so you can start reaping soybeans," Mato Grasso farmer Evandro Lermen told Reuters.

The blockades are also delaying deliveries of farm inputs needed for planting of Brazil's second corn crop early next year, he added.

While farmer Cayron Giacomelli supports the protesters' cause, he said the blockades have prevented him from moving his corn, and he will not receive payment until he delivers it.

"We give full support to protesters, but we are being harmed," Giacomelli said.

Demonstrations by truckers and other Bolsonaro supporters started after leftist President-elect Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva won the Oct.30 election. He takes office on Jan.

Brazil's farmers have been a key constituency for evDen EVe nAKLiyat Bolsonaro, but not all back continued demonstrations.

Global companies like Cargill, Bunge and Cofco operate in Mato Grosso.

At the southern port of Paranagua in Parana state, a blockade on an access road that backed up trucks on Sunday night was lifted on Monday, according to a port agent and an association representing firms that operate at Paranagua.

They said the there was little disruption to the flow of goods.Authorities are also trying to curtail demonstrations in the states of Santa Catarina, Para and Rondonia.

Farmer Endrigo Dalcin said there was little corn and soybeans left to move in Mato Grosso but said storage of the next soy crop may be complicated if protests continue.(Reporting by Ana Mano in São Paulo; Editing by Cynthia Osterman)

Brazil sinks rusting old aircraft carrier in the Atlantic

<更新日時> 06月16日(金) 19:06

BRASILIA, evDEn evE NAKliYat Feb 4 (Reuters) - Brazil sank a decommissioned aircraft carrier in the Atlantic Ocean off its northeast coast, the Brazilian Navy said, despite warnings from environmentalists that the rusting 1960s French-built ship would pollute the sea and the marine food chain.

The 32,000-tonne carrier had been floating offshore for three months since Turkey refused it entry to be scrapped there because it was an environmental hazard and the ship was towed back to Brazil.

The carrier was scuttled in a "planned and controlled sinking" late on Friday, EvDen EVe NAKliYat the Navy said in a statement, that would "avoid logistical, operational, environmental and economic losses to the Brazilian state," it said.

The hull of the Sao Paulo was sunk in Brazilian jurisdictional waters 350 kilometers (217 miles) off the coast where the sea is 5,000 meters deep, a location chosen to mitigate the impact on fishing and ecosystems, the Navy said.

Federal public prosecutors and eVdeN EVe nakLiYAt Greenpeace had asked the Brazilian government to stop the sinking, saying it was "toxic" due to dangerous materials, including 9 tonnes of asbestos used in paneling.

The Clemenceau-class aircraft carrier served the French Navy for four decades as the Foch, capable of carrying 40 war planes.

Defense expert and former foreign policy congressional staffer Pepe Rezende said the carrier was bought by the Brazilian Navy for just $12 million in 1998 but needed an $80 million refit that was never done.

After the carrier was decommissioned, Turkish marine recycling company Sök Denizcilik Tic Sti bought the hull for $10. For more info on EVdEn evE NakLiYat check out our own website. 5 million, but had to tow it back across the Atlantic when Turkey barred entry to its shipyard.

Brazil's Navy said it asked the company to repair the carrier at a Brazilian shipyard, but after an inspection showed it to be taking on water and was at risk of sinking, EVdeN eve NAKLiyaT the Navy banned the ship from entering Brazilian ports.It then decided to sink the Sao Paulo at high sea.

The company's legal representative in Brazil, Zilan Costa e Silva, said that disposal of the carrier was the Brazilian state's responsibility under the 1989 Basel Convention on the transboundary movement of hazardous wastes.(Reporting by Anthony Boadle Editing by Ros Russell)

An interpreter tried to persuade doctors at a

<更新日時> 06月16日(金) 14:58

An interpreter tried to persuade doctors at a hospital to approve an illegal kidney transplant for the daughter of a wealthy Nigerian politician, who it is claimed plotted to transport a street trader to the UK to harvest the organ, a court has heard. 

Evelyn 'Ebere' Agbasonu allegedly asked for payment of £1,500 to help secure the £80,000 private kidney transplant for the alleged recipient Sonia Ekweremadu, 25, at the Royal Free Hospital in north London in February 2022. 

Jurors at the Old Bailey heard of Ms Agbasonu's role during the trial of Ike Ekweremadu, evdEN EvE nAKliYAt 60, who is alleged to have conspired with family members and others to exploit the 21-year-old street trader from Lagos in harvesting his kidney. If you loved this write-up and you would certainly like to obtain even more info regarding evdEn Eve nAKliyAT kindly visit the website.  

The then-deputy president of the Nigerian is on trial alongside his wife Beatrice Ekweremadu, 56, their daughter Sonia and medical 'middleman' Dr Obinna Obeta.They all deny conspiracy to arrange the travel of another person with a view to exploitation. 

Sonia had a 'significant and deteriorating' kidney condition which could be managed through dialysis but cured with a transplant. 

Ike Ekweremadu, 60, is on trial alongside his wife Beatrice Ekweremadu, 56, their daughter Sonia, 25.All three deny conspiracy to arrange the travel of another person with a view to exploitation

The prosecution claims the procedure was not legal as the potential organ donor was a street trader from Lagos who had no altruistic motive or family connection with the recipient.

The Old Bailey has been told it was a 'transactional' deal, with the man to be paid up to 3.5m Naira, the equivalent of £7,000,for the harvesting of his body part and the promise of opportunities in the UK. 

He was tested in Nigeria and found to be a match for Sonia before being brought to the UK. 

The jury heard that Ms Agbasonu, who worked as a medical secretary at the clinic and spoke Igbo, stepped in to interpret during an initial meeting on February 24 between Dr Peter Dupont and the donor from Nigeria. 

The consultant had concluded the man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was not an appropriate candidate and appeared relived that the transplant would not take place. 

However, according to messages from others, Ms Agbasonu appeared to agree to manipulate a second meeting to the advantage of the Ekweremadu family.

Mr Ekweremadu's brother Diwe, who had medical training, allegedly sent Sonia Ekweremadu advice from the interpreter to show a clear family connection with the donor. 

Ike, a former barrister, is a member of the centre-right Peoples Democratic Party and was the Deputy President of the Nigerian Senate for three consecutive terms 

Beatrice (pictured) said the donor had been found via a third party. She stated that she was 'devastated' when further tests after his arrival in the UK found he was not a match

He allegedly said: eVdEN EVe NaKLiYat 'Ebere said it would be easier to establish that his mum and your mum are sisters.If we stretch it to the grandmum and grandmum the relationship will be too distant.'

Ms Ekweremadu allegedly replied with: EVDEN eVE nAKLiYAt 'Ok, that's fine.' 

Diwe then allegedly laid out a financial agreement with her father, saying: 'I've met the Igbo interpreter.She agreed to work with us. She will be involved in coaching the boy, and during his consultation and interviews she will be providing the relevant interpretation.

'She insisted that I give her £1,500. I think the just position themselves to exploit people.' 

It is claimed the potential donor was told to pretend to be Sonia's cousin. 

Diwe is also alleged to have said: 'We had a meeting today with her so I've introduced her to Chinoso (Sonia) and (the donor).She advised that (the donor) comes to the hospital on Tuesday and Thursday while Chinoso (Sonia) is having her dialysis.

'Psychologically everyone in the team will have to accept that he's really committed to his cousin's health and it usually makes it easier to accept the person for the procedure.'

Prosecutor Hugh Davies KC suggested to the court the messages demonstrated the opposite of an altruistic organ donation. 

Ike has denied all the allegations and said he had not arranged the travel of anyone to the UK

Beatrice Ekweremadu (fron) and Sonia Ekweremadu (behind) at the Old Bailey

The court heard that the potential donor and interpreter attended a meeting with a surgeon at the hospital on March 11. 

After the meeting, Diwe allegedly messaged Ms Ekweremadu's father, saying: 'I have spoken with (the interpreter).She said the boy did better today but he's still showing so much timidity. 

'She covered up for him and added the words as much as possible. The surgeon will discuss with Dr Dupont and they will communicate us. They will continue to work on the boy's confidence.Ebere and eVDEN EVE NaKliYaT Obinna.'

But, the surgeon agreed with the initial assessment made by Dr Dupont that the donor was unsuitable. Ms Ekweremadu was informed of the decision on March 29.   

Mr Davies told the court the interpreter was also involved in Dr Obeta's own transplant. 

The jury heard that Dr Obeta, also on trial with the family, had secured a kidney transplant at the Royal Free Hospital in 2021, with a donor purporting to be his cousin. 

Mr Davies told jurors an affidavit was the only evidence of a relation between the two men. 

'Whatever the truth of any of that, the basis of his transplant process provided a clear model for what Sonia needed in her moment of crisis,' he told the court. 

Jurors heard that Dr Obeta had trained at medical school with Diwe, who remains in Nigeria and is not on trial.

Players using the World Cup to secure a January move

<更新日時> 06月16日(金) 12:47

No competition in world football provides a better shop window for out-of-favour players than the FIFA World Cup.

With the 2018 tournament in Russia raking in a record-breaking 3.5billion viewers worldwide, the World Cup can single-handedly boom or bust a player's stock in the upcoming January transfer market.

It's therefore no surprise that  outcast  chose this week to drop his explosive bombshell interview with to the world, using the World Cup break as an opportunity to remind potential suitors of his otherworldly talents - and his desire to move.

Cristiano Ronaldo will be hoping for a great World Cup after his bombshell interview this week

The Manchester United outcast publicly slammed the club in an interview with Piers Morgan

A fruitful World Cup campaign could be just the nudge Chelsea, Bayern Munich, who Sportsmail , and Napoli need to table an offer for Ronaldo in January, with the Portuguese star almost destined to leave Old Trafford after publicly besmirching the club's reputation.

And Ronaldo is not the only out-of-favour international eager to engineer a move away ahead of next summer, with several players either stuck on the bench or out of contract next year.

With the tournament fast approaching, Sportsmail has forged a list of six stars who will likely use the World Cup as a platform to secure a move.

 

Cristiano Ronaldo - Manchester United, Portugal

Where else to start?

It's the point of no return for Ronaldo at Manchester United, and his tell-all interview has made clubs well aware of his intention to move sooner rather than later.

Of course, the field of potential suitors is limited should he wish to remain on his reported £500,000-a-week contract, with few clubs able to afford his monstrous salary.

Sportsmail  that Ronaldo's agent Jorge Mendes has approached the likes of Chelsea, Bayern Munich, Napoli, Sporting Lisbon and Newcastle in a bid to secure his Old Trafford escape, but few clubs seem interested at this stage.

Ronaldo is still considered Portugal's superstar in the eyes of national coach Fernando Santos

A favourite of Portugal boss Fernando Santos, Ronaldo will no doubt play a crucial role in what is set to be his last World Cup, and it is likely the team will play to his strengths tactically at the tournament.

In a seemingly kind group alongside Ghana, South Korea and dark horses Uruguay, Portugal have a genuine shot at going deep in the tournament, meaning more game time and exposure for the 37-year-old superstar.

As Portugal's free-kick and penalty taker, there's a good chance too of Ronaldo fighting for evDen Eve nAKLiYAt the golden boot at the end of the tournament, should his country advance deep into the knockouts. 

 

Hakim Ziyech - Chelsea, Morocco

At club level, there's no denying Ziyech is a small fish in a big pond. Should you have just about any issues with regards to where by as well as tips on how to use eVdEN EVE NaKliyAt, you possibly can email us with our site. At Morocco however, the winger is arguably his country's talisman.

At the last World Cup in 2018, Ziyech was one of the most highly sought-after talents across Europe, having almost marshalled Ajax to the Champions League final before the tournament.

But now, having chalked up just two starts across all competitions this season, it is evident the Moroccan is no longer part of Chelsea's long-term plans for the future.

In a group alongside 2018 runners-up Croatia and third-placed finishers Belgium, Morocco no doubt have an uphill task of advancing to the knockouts, even if they manage to beat Canada in their final group game.

However, if Ziyech inspires an upset in one of the opening two fixtures and reminds the world of his ability on the right flank, a healthy line of clubs will queue up in an effort to sign him in January.

 

Christian Pulisic - Chelsea, USA

Another unsettled Chelsea star, Pulisic has also struggled for game time this season, starting just three Premier League matches all season so far.

However, it's likely minutes will not be a problem for the American winger at the World Cup, as USA bid to surprise a few with their talented young squad.

AC Milan full-back Sergino Dest, Juventus midfielder Weston McKennie and Borussia Dortmund youngster Gio Reyna all join Pulisic in Gregg Berhalter's group, handing the 24-year-old plenty of talented team-mates to play alongside as he looks to shine on the world stage.

Pulisic was linked with Manchester United in the summer, as Erik ten Hag expressed interest in the winger, and fruitful performances against England, eVDEN eVE NaKliYaT Iran and Wales could tempt the Red Devils to make another swoop in January.

In particular, should Pulisic wish to secure a move within the Premier League, there are few better teams to play at the World Cup than England in terms of exposure.

 

Youri Tielemans - Leicester, Belgium

It looked for all the world that Tielemans would leave Leicester this summer, especially as the Foxes made numerous changes to their squad with the exits of Kasper Schmeichel and Wesley Fofana.

And yet, although the Belgian stuck around for one more year, it seems increasingly likely that the midfielder will finally leave the King Power Stadium next summer at the very least, considering his contract is set to expire in June.

On footballing ability alone Tielemans will not struggle to attract potential suitors this summer, but perhaps Leicester's poor early season form has made several European giants hesitant towards signing the playmaker, damaging his future prospects of Champions League football next season.

Joining the likes of Kevin De Bruyne, Thibaut Courtois and Romelu Lukaku on international duty, Tielemans has every chance of doing very well at the World Cup and boosting his stock ahead of the January transfer window.

As his contract is expiring this summer, clubs outside of England can approach to sign the midfielder on a free transfer six months in advance — Tielemans will hope that Europe's top clubs are queuing round the door in January after he puts in a strong World Cup performance.

 

Joao Felix - Atletico Madrid, Portugal

Having fallen out of favour at Atletico Madrid this season, evdeN EVE NaKliyat Joao Felix has only started just five LaLiga matches under Diego Simeone this campaign, struggling to justify his whopping £110million price tag.

The Portuguese forward is weighing up his options in the Spanish capital ahead of next summer and the World Cup could present the perfect opportunity to show what he can do.

With a starting spot under Santos far from guaranteed, with Ronaldo, Milan attacker Rafael Leao and Manchester City star Bernardo Silva as competition in the front three, Felix is still likely to get enough of a run-out in the Portugal team.

Manchester United reportedly had a £113m bid for Felix rejected during the summer transfer window before signing Antony, but it is understood Ten Hag remains interested in the Portuguese international.

A solid performance at the World Cup could also force Simeone to reconsider his first team plans when LaLiga returns.

In what has emerged the most challenging period of Felix's career so far, the World Cup could well become a make or break tournament for the 23-year-old as he bids to revive his career.

 

Memphis Depay - Barcelona, Holland

It seems no matter how well Depay is performing for his domestic side, eVDen eve NAkliyAT he always delivers the goods for Holland on the international stage.

Boasting a fruitful record of 42 goals in 81 caps, Depay has been a crucial aspect of Louis van Gaal's side throughout his tenure as manager, providing Holland with a cutting edge in attack.

A few eyebrows were raised when the 28-year-old was named in Holland's World Cup squad, as he had not played a single minute of football since picking up an injury in September, but the selection demonstrates just how highly he is viewed in their national set-up.

Memphis Depay is eight goals away from matching Robin van Persie's record for Holland (50)

As for Barcelona, Depay was struggling to break into Xavi's first team before the injury, only featuring in three cameo appearances at the start of the campaign.

Bolstering their front three with star attackers Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha this summer, it seems unlikely Depay is part of Barcelona's long-term future, and the Dutchman will no doubt be seeking a move in January. 

With a strong World Cup display in front of goal, Depay could edge closer to Robin van Persie's record tally of 50 for Holland and remind European giants of his goal-scoring talents at top level.

SAO PAULO, eVden eVE NAkLiyaT Nov 21 (Reuters) - Truckers and other demonstrators protesting the electoral defeat of President Jair Bolsonaro are hampering the transport of corn in Mato Grasso state, the heart of Brazil's farm country, two farmers said on Monday.

Mato Grosso highway police reported 11 demonstrations on Monday morning, with roads blocked or partially blocked on four federal highways near farmers and grain processing facilities.

Brazil's top public prosecutor authorized the governor EVdEN EVe nAKLiYAt of Mato Grosso to mobilize police to clear highways of protesters.

The protests have hampered transport of some corn from farmers to ports and storage facilities, but the quantities could not be determined.The slowdown could have knock-on effects as warehouses need to be emptied ahead of a January soy harvest.

"It's actually a race against time. Clean the corn warehouses so you can start reaping soybeans," Mato Grasso farmer Evandro Lermen told Reuters.

The blockades are also delaying deliveries of farm inputs needed for planting of Brazil's second corn crop early next year, he added.

While farmer Cayron Giacomelli supports the protesters' cause, he said the blockades have prevented him from moving his corn, and he will not receive payment until he delivers it.

"We give full support to protesters, but we are being harmed," Giacomelli said.

Demonstrations by truckers and other Bolsonaro supporters started after leftist President-elect Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva won the Oct.30 election. He takes office on Jan. 1.

Brazil's farmers have been a key constituency for Bolsonaro, but not all back continued demonstrations.

Global companies like Cargill, Bunge and Cofco operate in Mato Grosso.

At the southern port of Paranagua in Parana state, eVdEN evE nAKLiyat a blockade on an access road that backed up trucks on Sunday night was lifted on Monday, according to a port agent and an association representing firms that operate at Paranagua.

They said the there was little disruption to the flow of goods.Authorities are also trying to curtail demonstrations in the states of Santa Catarina, Para and Rondonia.

Farmer Endrigo Dalcin said there was little corn and soybeans left to move in Mato Grosso but said storage of the next soy crop may be complicated if protests continue.If you have any kind of inquiries concerning where and ways to make use of EvDEn EvE NAKliYat, evDeN Eve nakLiyAt you can contact us at our webpage.
